If you look back at the posts on this blog, you will see an entry dated March 2007 where I talk about a blue Sylva Riot with the engine from a rolled Ford Focus.
Well 8 years and 3 months later, the car is on the road - my longest build by a long shot.

The car is very dirty in this shot. The heavens opened just before my first drive.

Thanks Jeremy for your patience! I got there in the end.
Here's the inevitable list of to dos.

Steering wheel not straight

Various rattles

Alternative catch arrangement for engine cover so I don't burn myself when opening

Heat shield between exhaust manifold and engine cover to stop number plate melting

Water channel above ECU to stop it getting wet when engine cover is opened
